Hey all!
I'm just having one of those nights, and this is the only place I can vent without being judged. I've been broken up for a year now, and I don't really care about my ex, but I feel empty randomly every now and then. I feel like I have to keep distracting myself all the time to pretend to be happy...when I'm actually not. I've done everything people on here recommend..focussed on myself, my career, friends, family and health...and yet, something feels really missing. I have trouble understanding how a girl like me can get so lonely. I'm pretty, smart, sweet, funny....but feel like I have so few people in my life that it feels lonely. The weekends are the worst!! A lot of my friends are in relationships (I'm 25), and no one wants to hang out or do anything fun. I feel so left out. My birthday is coming up soon, and I realized I'll be turning 26, and haven't had one birthday yet where I've had a bf that has made me feel special on my special day. My last bf broke up with me a few days before my bday. Anyway, it doesn't make sense for someone like me to feel so lonely. I'm socially normal, fun, cute....I should not be this depressed!! But I live by myself, and sometimes it gets soooooooo lonely and boring. Anyone else feel this way?? I don't know what to do!!! I want to genuinely be happy like I was when I was dating?? What is wrong with me?? Please help! Thank you very much for listening.
-Hope
